"Stewart's remark is flatulent," Donohue says. "If Wal-Mart had a 'Holiday' section on its website that directed customers to its Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa sites, that would not be objectionable."

You know, I really hope the use of this word is because of an error in transcription by WND, and not because Donahue actually used it.

The correct word would be fatuous.

The last one works for me, Miss M. :)

Being familiar with Bill Donohue, I would say he used the word he meant to use: flatulent which can mean pompous or bloated.
